PatientsLikeMe www.patientslikeme.com Award of Distinction "Digital Communities" 2008
PatientsLikeMe is a website serving chronically ill men and women all over the world. The diagnosis and the course an illness takes, treatment methods and their success are documented here in detail, whereby each patient sketches his/her own illness profile, which is then made available to all other fellow-sufferers. PatientsLikeMe also hosts numerous discussion forums designed to enable patients to engage in mutual exchange. PatientsLikeMe thus combines information offerings with social interaction.
